Express Entry newbie

[thejakehake]

Hi, just needed to know if I apply through Express Entry (FSW), does this mean that this would be my Canadian citizenship application?
Or are there 2 applications, namely EE & then normal immigration to Canada appl?
Can anyone share the process/documentation needed for EE - Just wanna make sure I've done everything correctly.

No - it's not an application for Canadian citizenship.

If you are selected through EE and end up being approved, you become a permanent resident. You then have to live in Canada for a number of years before you can qualify to apply for Canadian citizenship.

Information about the EE program is here:
